Oh, the article itself is unremarkable. Only the usage of apostrophes is egregiously horrific.
Question mark key stuck?
Ok. I don’t know the author personally but perhaps he’ll follow the track-back and take your critiques into consideration.
Having a bad day?
No. It was deliberate.
No, I just think published writing should use punctuation correctly. My 3rd grader is being tested on this stuff. Since “you don’t know the author personally,” and presumably aren’t the author yourself, I can’t see why my comment would occasion any distress.
OK, getting boring. Adios and have a nice day. :)
See post 26.
Have a Guinness.
It's pretty clear Mayberry was a center of occult gnosticism.
Floyd was running the local Illuminati chapter out of the barber shop that
initiated Opie into this and Ozark ritual magic. He has all the signs of a
programmed multiple, including making contradictory and absurd statements
of cognitive dissonance and believing both accounts to be true.
It is well known that Aunt Bee was a theosophical Blavatsky adept who introduced Opie to the crackpot Priory of Sion Illuminati lore, instructing him in
Enochian incantations and occult yoga.
He's been around weirdness for a long time.
Well, we know that Barney always wanted to nip Opie in the bud.
Remember Clint Howard on Seinfeld? “Ann Landers sucks!”
You think he has a Dixie homintern membership card?
If Andy Griffith and Ron Howard wanted to support and campaign for B. Hussein Obama as private citizens and as themselves that’s their right and freedom to do so. But when they brought their Andy and Opie Taylor characters into it, 2 characters from the days when TV shows were relatively apolitical and more concerned about entertaining their audiences, that really annoys me. Why alienate half your potential audience like that?
Yes, this might help a bit:
